So pleased to have this poem in the latest edition of the Cormorant, amongst many other beautiful pieces in the issue. It’s great to have such an interesting publication coming out of the North West.

Having received previous Arts Council funding now disqualifies you from the Agility Award. Obviously resources are limited but it’s hard to support this decision. What is out there to support artists in the massive middle ground between first agility award and a bursary?

2024 is ending on a bit of a high for me as I have a poem in Poetry Ireland Review for the first time. It is also so nice to recognise so many names in the issue as friends I’ve met through the Irish poetry community these past few years. Here’s to a 2025 full of good poems and interesting people.

Such a beautiful evening at the Fat Éire launch last night. Absolutely blown away with how aesthetically beautiful the book design is also.

Finally home after too long away, reminded me of this poem from the stinging fly, a few issues back. 💚❤️

Minor first post paralysis — I figure you can’t go wrong with a bit of Heaney for your troubles.
